Channel Aggregation in THz Communication: Linearity Considerations in Full Electronic System

This paper gives experimental results on channel aggregationin THz communication with an investigation on its impact on the systems linearity. In a full electronic wireless communication link, multiple modems are aggregated by frequency division multiplex while the impact on gain compression in the transmitter is evaluated. Operated at the required back-off, the real-time setup is able to transmit 23.6 Gbit/s of IP-based network traffic.
